The Lee Statlp.

The Lee Monument Association. at ie-
cent meeting decided to select Monsieur
Merce, an eminent French Sculptor, to
execute the design for the monument to
General R. E. Lee.
1t is understood that the sculptor is to
furnish the board with small model of the
proposed statue for their acceptance, the
idea of the board being, to place General
Lee on typical thoroughbred horse, stand
ing in perfect repose. Monsieur Mercie
will be sent the height and average weight
of the General during the war, together
with full description of his person, dress,
&c.. also al engraving and other pictures
which General Gusts Lee p. onounces the
best likenesscs of his father taken of him in
Confederate unifoi m; also plaster cast OF
his face taken By the celebrated Clark
Mills.
The sculptor has furnished the model for
the horse which gives entire satisfaction,
Major T. w. boswell pronouncing it the
best modelled horse he ever saw.
The site of the monument will be the
Allen lot in the western part of tie city
above Richmond College. Through the
lot will be broad avenues from East to
West and from North to South iutersecting
on circle of 800 feet in diameter, in the
center Of which the monument will be
placed. The Cornerstone of the monument
will be laid on the first day of the State
Fair.

The survivors of Gen. Pickett's men, who
made the memorable charge at the battle
of Gettysburg, and the survivors of the
Philadelphia troops. who were opposed to
them at the "bloody angle'' where Pick
ett's men pierced the Federal line, and
where Gen. Armistead fell leading bis men,
met on that field again on Saturday, when
Pickett's men received cordial and royal
welcome, and on that night Col. W. X.
Aylett, the youngest and only surviving
Colonel of Pickett's men, made all eloquent
and patriotic address that received frequent
and hearty applause. The widow and son
of Gen. Pickett were present. On the 4th
of july the Federals and Confederates
formed in opposing lines at the ''bloody
angle" just as they were on the day of
battle.
Pickett's men and members of the Phila-
delphia brigade shook hands over the stone
wall where the deadly conflict in Pickett's
charge took place. Many witnessed the
touching scene.
Two negatives of the Blue and Gray
shaking hands over the wall at the Bloody
Angle were taken. The photog de-
clared he would not take $500 for them.

Ex-President Davis says s'the South has
manifested no desire to have possession of
the flags lost in battle, but their restora-
tion would be declaration, such as the old
Romans made, that there should be no tri-
umph for victory in civil war. So far as
it should express the feelings of restored
fraternity, it would be an advance toward
that condition which all reasonable men
recognize as desirable among those who
are to live together" Is there anything
else but patent truth and plain common
sense in this? And wouldn't the Tuttles,
and the Fairchilds, and the Forakers, and
all the many thousand Republican bloody
shutters who support them, have showed
more real patriotism by reiterating Mr.. Da
vis's wise words than their recent attempt
to stir up and fan the embers of civil wal

From Across the Atlantic.

A friend travelling in Europe sends us
Hartlepool (England) daily, from which

the "Swansea" is the wife of Mr.. George
r. Baker, leading merchant of Balti
more, and the daughter of the late DR..
James r. Jordan, of Lexington, whose
memory is still fresh in the affections Of
many readers of the SPECTATOR. The
vivacity and gifts of speech of the father
have been inherited by the daughter.
This paper contains au account of the
launching at Hartlepool of a fac steel screw
steamer by Messrs. Gray & Co., on the
afternoon of June s, 1887. The dimen
sions of this vessel are given-length 1924
feet, width 40 feet, depth go feet inches.

and is to ply between London, Swansea
and Baltimore, an addition to the Atlantic
transport line of steamers.
This account, after giving in minute de-
tail the different parts Of the vessel, with
materials used, construction, interior and
deck arrangements and accommodation,
closes with the ceremony of christening
and launching.

The Panama Canal-Its Failure.

The triumphs of genius and the courage
of faith illustrated on the Eastern Cont
nent will forever associate with the name
of De Lesseps, the greatest achievement OF
his age. Shortening the routes OF COM
MERGE by the Suez Canal demanded that
the problem of uniting with waterway
the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans should be
solved. Governments had considered, Legls-
latures and Congress of Nations had DIS
cussed it, and the minds engaged in finding
new paths of inter accommodation between
maritime countries had pondered over it,
but the practical application, after surveys
had been made, of money and skill and
energy were never forthcoming till the
great French engineer impressed his power
full mind and staked his world-renowned
reputation upon the feasibility of the
scheme. His plans and estimates of cost
were presented and discussed. No SUCCESS
full opposition in a just view of the grea'
question was established against it, but
governments and the commercial influences
most deeply interested stood aloof. His ad-
miring countrymen came to his help, but
that was not enough. The private contri-
buttons of his generous patrons were not
sufficient to overcome the diseouragements
in the way. The negative action of gov
eminent, with the jealousies of continental
railroads, and competing propositions SINH
lar to his own, were obstacles which required
more aid to overcome than a simple COM
pany corporation of individuals could bring
to his help. At one time it was thought
New York, in the exercise of its command
ing commercial influences, would take VI
his appeal, but that city, without condemn
ing, ON the contrary after finding by IN
vestigation much to approve in the scheme
allowed it to wane. The great Republic
and the mighty Empire of the Western
world lost their opportunities and to all ap
pearances the unfinished work, withou
another of his stamp to rise up and TAX
his place, will be regarded as failure. l
is not reasonable to suppose that one of hi
great age can last through the time nsces
sary to combat the theories adverse to hi
views, or to successfully encounter the dis
satisfaction which will naturally arise wit
at least portion of the corporators. Wit
life and strength of mind assured, b
would be equal to the task, and the mos
interesting engineering problem of the az
would not remain unsolved.
The apparent failure of De Lesseps a
Panama should find no exultation in til
United States, but it does. The losses b
will have TO account for were not INQUIRE
in this country. The scheme, as he pre-
jected it, was international. His purpose
were to benefit the commerce and trading
intercourse of the world. His compreher
sive plans and his Igreat mind developin
such magnificent enterprises would al
thorize the world to claim this eminer
citizen as its own, and the time will com
when the failure to support him will b
considered national mistake.

The Tide Of Immigration.

For several years past the tide of i'm
migration 20 the American shores has been
rather slack; but if the promises of the
past few mouths are realized, this year
will be noted for its huge tidal wave of this
kind. the outlook at present indicates
hundreds Of thousands Of Europe's poor,
as we'll a. invalids, paupers, insane and
criminals, will be landed upon our shores
this season. The paupers will find their
way to our comfortable alms-honses, the
invalids to our hospitals, the insane to our
our asylums, and the criminals to our
prisons, and the Industrious and thrifty
people of this country will be taxed to sup
port them.
The criminals, Socialists, anarchists and
nihilists, the offas of the. effete and effemi-
nate European dynasties, are the ones whose
advent on cur shores is to be the most de.
plored. They will disturb our society,
make war upon morality. and impart a
variety of vilainy and murder that will
poison our population to certain extent
They make it necessary that our police
forces should be increased; our courts will
have to try them, and our prisons receive
them; all OF which makes it expensive on
our people.
While America is the country of freemen,
and the asylum of the oppressed, it is a
matter of grave doubt whether the people
of this country should be taxed to maintain
burden thrust upon them by foreign
countries ii order to protect their treas
uries, and heir tax payers.
The criminal class comes from countries
which know no gratitude, and kindly feel
ing for their subjects, and bring no sense
of gratitude or Justice with them.
Immigrat ton should he restricted. 1t is
due our people. Europe does not send her
best. Bnt the scum and riff.raff come to

WHAT HON. GEO. D. WISE sAID.-In
speaking to the Washington Correspond
emit of the Alexandria Gazette, Hon. Geo.
D. Wise; Democratic Congressman of the
Richmond District, wisely said:
can important thing for the democrats
of the State to recollect in their plans for
next falls campaign is the urgent neces
sity of having active, competent aud ef1ici-
ent city and county party superintendents.
He said the party had suffered in the past
from delivGuencies in this respect, and
would do s., in the future unless special at
tention were directed toward it. Some
superntepdents, he said, seemed to think
all that is necessary to do is to call meet
irgs of the committees and appoint speak
ers and csnvassers and publish such ap
pointmen.s in the newspapers, and that
then their duty was done; but that instead,
it had only begun, and that to win they
must work, and work hard, night and day,
and, besidss work wisely, from the CON-
mencement of the campaign until the end
thereof.
